Gong Xi Fa Chai

This is my third attempt posting my blog today.Streamyx sux big timela ,ok. Today is supposed to be a beautiful day. No jam at the federal high way, my mom won't be here until Friday,I ate my delicious nasik lemak peacefully and my office is next to empty. Tapi bila internet down, itu menyebabkan semua elemen-elemen tadi macam tak penting lansung. Tertekan tau tak takleh chat dekat YM, takleh cek email and tak boleh bercinta secara virtual.Ok, enough of cerita kemarahan


Tomorrow is Chinese New Year, not that I celebrate but I am still happy since I dun have to go to the office for the rest of the week.Best gile ok.I was talking to one of my client on the phone yesterday.


Me:Ok,I'll send my dispatch to fetch the time sheet.
Ms.Han:Okie.
Me:Happy Chinese New Year.
Ms.Han:You too.Don't get drunk so much ho?Cheng* chong* [speaking in Chinese]
Me:Err, I dun celebrate lah.
Ms.Han:You're not Chinese meh?But you look like Chinese.
Me:I'm malayla.Hehe
Ms.Han:Ohh..


I meet her like every month and she thought I'm Chinese. Well, she's not the only one. . My colleagues always forget the fact that I'm Malay. During every lunch hour


Me:Where are you guys eating?
Juliana:Corner shop loh[where they sell non halal food]
Me:Hello, I don't eat pork, remember?
Paige:Demm.I always forget that u are malay.Nevermindlah, we can teach you how to eat char siew. A crash course.
Juliana:Yeah, u just eatlah.Dun open your mouth.Surely people will never know u are Malay
Me:You crazy ah? .


Heh!I dun think I look Chinese at all.I think I look Malay. I look so Malay. I just dun get it when I walk alone there will always be someone who will come to me and speak Chinese. The worst was when I was shopping in Pyramid and there's this monk came up to me to sell the Buddha beads. I was like..WTF??.


But that was then, now that I've highlighted my hair, Paige told me that I dun Chinese anymore instead I look Eurasian. Eurasian??Takde pon aku rasa, kalau betul takpelah jugak.Hohohoh.Perasannye aku.


Anyway, to my Chinese friends and to those who are not Chinese tapi bermata sepet[ha!]


Happy Chinese New Year and Happy Holiday!
